Objective

Student can implement fundamental data structures and algorithms and compare their properties. Student can use different data structures, such as lists, sets, dictionaries, trees and hashing, and algorithms associated to them. Student can develop applications, which utilizes different kind of data structures and algorithms efficiently.

Content

- Lists, stack, queue
- Dictionaries
- Trees
- Sorting
- Searching
- Hashing
- Principles of algorithm analysis
- Collection classes of C#, Java or C++

Location and time

The schedules can be found in the timetable at https://lukkarikone.seamk.fi/. Timetables are published for the next six weeks. The first six weeks of autumn are published by Midsummer and the first six weeks of spring by Christmas. Timetables may be subject to changes.

Materials

Lecture notes and other material to be announced

Teaching methods

The study involves contact teaching and requires attendance at the SEAMK campus. You have to attend 70 % of lessons.

The course also includes independent work online.

Completion alternatives

There are no alternative completion methods for the course.

Student workload

The workload of the study is designed so that one credit corresponds to an average of 27 hours of student work to achieve the learning objectives. The actual time required varies individually, e.g., due to prior knowledge.
